With a little thought about what you plant in your outside space it will not only look beautiful but will yield some very useful and inspirational things prompting the unleashing of the creative you. Lemon trees look great and you can grow them in a pot on your balcony or terrace (they will flourish in a sheltered area or you can take them inside if the winter is very harsh). The tree will give fruit all year round. When the blooms appear before the fruit the air is scented like a heaven send – it doesn’t get much better than this. Lemons get used lots in summer to help olive oil dress your salads or squeeze into a summer cocktail or fruit add to a fruit punch. In winter try making your own lemoncillo the perfect winter schnaps or a lemon loaf to help keep your cockles warm, entertain guests and make your kitchen smell…
